Bridal Beauty

Luxury means Luxury 

Im pulling out all the stops for you, Honey! Lets take a look at what it is to have a Luxury Glam Session with Melia. So here's the deal.....

The Look

As a bridal makeup specialist, I understand every little detail needs to be just right on your big day. Selecting a makeup artist who can harmonize her expertise along with your wants & needs is so incredibly necessary! I am passionate about making your bridal vision a reality on your most special day. Whether you envision a fresh, natural look or striking, bridal glamour - let's nail it. I love creating flawless, glowing skin, that truly looks & feels like skin with a soft touch of glam. Soft Glam has reputably become my signature look. My goal is to make you feel like the absolute best version of yourself and that your wedding guests see you, not just the makeup you're wearing. Allow me to create for you a timeless bridal look while you get top quality treatment.

The Experience

The morning of your wedding day should be an incredible experience that you never forget & I would love nothing more than to make that memory even more special for you. My wish is for each one of my stunning brides to feel uniquely catered to & individually pampered, because you deserve to shine! You'll be sipping bubbly mimosas, giggling with your best girls, peeking out the window for a glimpse of your groom & basking in the last few hours as a bride-to-be. I want you to enjoy all of these precious moments & relax knowing that your luxury bridal makeup experience will fit right in with your exciting morning-of festivities, effortlessly. I take care of everything beauty! I do a skin consult to tailor your customized skincare prep before applying the make-up. All products are customized to fit your exact skin needs. I believe "good skin= good makeup." You will be sitting in a tall makeup chair, in front of you will be big photo light to ensure you look Fab under every light, giving a true "celebrity glam" experience. 

The Investment

This isn't your typical walk-up, beauty counter makeover. On your wedding day, there's no room for mistake, stress or fluster. Leave your bridal glam hopes & dreams up to a professional. Someone who knows how to apply makeup in such a way that it stays flawless & in place through tears, dancing, laughter & lots of kisses from your other half... I promise that when you make this investment in yourself & your bridal party, you will be rewarded. The proof will be in your beautiful wedding images! This will be the most documented, photographed day of your life - keep that in mind when selecting your wedding day makeup artist! 



Destination Weddings

Keep your exhilerating destination wedding stress-free by hiring a talented makeup artist to meet you in paradise. Wherever that may be... Within or outside of the United States. Beauty by Melia is available to be booked for travel worldwide. Don't leave your bridal glam up to a last minute Google search!
